Can't tell if you are serious or if this is a joke after the last thread . I'm getting the sense you are a little OCD!!

lol bsmooth, we all know you are anxious to swap your jetta for the C63 (i dont blame you on that) but you gotta relax a bit. go catch a baseball game, drink some beer, smoke a fatty or plan mods for your car. Heck, go take your SO out for something nice because you wont have much time once your car gets here.

but cmon, stop with these new threads.

Gremlin9

just a little tongue in cheek...
but not too much

I'm from Toronto, got word from my dealer last week that my 2013 C63 Sedan has been built and waiting for a ship. He sent me the VIN so i know he is not talking ****. Latest delivery date for me is Aug 13, i ordered the car April 12

OlegKouz

Jetta -> C63. Talk about an upgrade..I can see how he is so excited!

My dealer told my friend that they had a shortage on the lighting package so any 2013 model supplied in 2012 wont have it (they are using ones allocated to preordered cars on the new BS allocations)...did you spec your car with the lighting package? You might want to call the dealer and make sure!!

lololololol if this is true bsmooth is going to have to wait another 10 years for his 2013 c63 hahhaa

VaclavSV

The dealer also told my friend also told me they had a shortage on 6.3L AMG (M156) engines so they suck the 5.5L NA (M152) engine from the updated SLK 55 amg... something like 415hp, but they will tune it up to 451... think of it as a faovour for a lighter engine and better fuel economy

ZephyrAMG

quit whining.

Gremlin9

OMG, they are going to give me an inferior motor!!!
Then I expect a 10k discount on the car.
This is complete bull****!!!
































































On another note:

My car is 65 minutes away from docking in Baltimore.
I am told it is the first 2013 c63 sedan to hit North America and will be the first c63 sedan to be released from the VPC for 2013.

As far as I can tell, I ordered it fully loaded and fully loaded it is, complete with lighting package et al.

I am hearing stronger whispers that the release date will be tomorrow, July 17th.

If everything goes as planned, I should have the car in hand by July 23rd.

I do appreciate your concerns... this entire process has been excrutiating yet exhilarating.

I will take dozens of pics when she gets here...

Rsquad911

I really honestly hope you get it on the 23rd... because I don't think I can bare anymore of these posts....

if not....

Your next post is going to be somewhere along the lines of...

" $@#&*!#@ My 2013 C63 got delayed till July 24th! I am even more bummed!"

Fung63

lol Rsquad... that or we read an article on July 24th about a standoff with some guy at a MB dealer in the States

VaclavSV

SLS Qatar

I think it will be the same
2014 might have a new engine

Gremlin9

No, same engine until 2015.

Zeee_Q

Can't wait to see it and +1 on the pictures.

VaclavSV

I was just messing around... it definitely has the M156

Gremlin9

Well, July 17th has come and gone.
July 24th is next shot.
Personally, I'm thinking somewhere btwn the 24th-27th, but leaning closer to the 27th.

100 buckos is still up for grabs.

c63edition1

i love my car, but i was lucky, i did rush ! dont do the same, the longer you take to get it, the longer the awesome feeling of the new car lasts, cause it wont last forever

Gremlin9

EXACTLY!!!

I'm not like most on here who are coming from an m3 or gtr

Anybody else coming from a crappy vehicle like me?
